RFMD assembles 100 millionth module at Beijing facility

RFMD proudly announced that it has assembled its 100 millionth module in its Beijing, China, assembly facility. The Company attributes the assembly milestone to continued strong sales of its industry-leading portfolio of cellular power amplifiers.

Bob Bruggeworth, president and CEO of RFMD, made the announcement while touring the Company's Beijing facility: "Our power amplifiers are found in approximately one half of the world's phones, and our customers include all of the world's major handset manufacturers. We are particularly focused on supporting the growing presence of handset manufacturers in Asia, and we are committed to increasing our manufacturing capabilities in Asia as the region continues to evolve as the handset industry's manufacturing centre."

RFMD is increasing its assembly capacity in its Beijing facility by approximately 100% in response to a robust handset market and continued strong demand for its module products. The Company is also expanding its GaAs manufacturing capacity in its Greensboro, North Carolina, GaAs fab and expects to increase total GaAs wafer capacity by approximately 40%. The Company plans to complete both capacity expansions by the December 2006 quarter.
